Mercedes created a table to show the functions of different cell structures.
Cell Structure----Function
nucleus----controls the activities of the cell
cell membrane----allows materials in and out of the cell
mitochondria----use energy from the Sun to make sugars
cytoplasm----acts as a pump to control the movement of nutrients
chloroplast----provides the cell with most of its energy
What error did Mercedes make when creating her table?
A. Mercedes switched the functions of the cytoplasm and the cell membrane.
B. Mercedes switched the functions of the mitochondria and the chloroplast.
C. Mercedes switched the functions of the nucleus and the cell membrane.
D. Mercedes switched the functions of the chloroplast and the nucleus.
B. Mercedes switched the functions of the mitochondria and the chloroplast.
The correct functions should be:
- Mitochondria: provides the cell with most of its energy
- Chloroplast: use energy from the Sun to make sugars
